The village seemed still half asleep - blinds down wherever he looked - lazy, money-greedy tradesmen not yet alive to their selfish enterprises - only the poor laborers of the soil already at work; and nevertheless here was he, William Dale, up and about, carrying on the continuous business of the state.But how long would he be permitted to feel like this? Could, it be possible that the end of his importance was near at hand?About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
